so damn slow

[staf]

hi folks


when i turn on my computer it takes firefox ages and ages to load.

done virus checks and mallware

done ccleaner

what could it be?

Not that's it's the prob, but in case you didn't know, FF's cahse can be routed to RAM.(future ref.)

What os do you have? Windows? Are there a lot of programs and services running? Check msconfig from all programs or run.

Cleaned hdd of programs or files you don't need?(or not). Defragged hdd?

id recommend trying another browser, google chrome for example.

My firefox was slow too

If you have it loaded down with addons that most likely the issue. However, I run firefox as a secondary broswer and it usually loads up slow too but I just tried it and it installed an update and now it loads instantly. It's version 3.6.13
